Sunan an-Nasai 3299 — Woman and Aunt Marriage Ban

Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 3299

This narration from Jabir says that the Messenger of Allah forbade taking a woman as a co-wife to her paternal aunt or maternal aunt. The core topic is the woman and aunt marriage ban in the same marriage arrangement. The hadith is short, so its lesson should not be made complicated. It identifies two close relatives: the paternal aunt and the maternal aunt. It then gives a clear prohibition about joining either of them with the woman as co-wives. This wording is helpful for readers who want a simple hadith explanation on whether aunt and niece can be co-wives in Islam.
